The world has changed enough to indicate that online education has come to stay for long and might even become much more significant in the years to come. The students who are on the threshold of entering the professional world through the traditional job market or take an unconventional route towards professional development will have to take a closer look at online education from the standpoint of developing their hybrid skills for career development.
To answer the question as to what is the significance of hybrid skills, it would be prudent to look at the way job openings are moving these days, particularly in the backdrop of a technological revolution that is taking place and the pandemic that has unsettled the world by all means. The trend for the corporate recruiters to look for candidates with hybrid skills, in terms of mixing up of traditions skills in respective core areas along with technological skills, are increasingly coming to be the new normal.
They prefer to have candidates who are able to accommodate management skills along with that of technological competency in the latest form. In other words, we can also mention that hybrid jobs are becoming widely popular in the recruitment circles, in which there is a demand for traditional knowledge in subjects as majors and new-age skills like data management and analytics.
As a human resource mentor, I would normally advise and counsel students to keep track of their soft skills development while they are pursuing their courses irrespective of what they are studying.
It doesn’t matter if you are a top scorer in any course if you are not able to communicate well and be a team player. This can also be the best way to look at hybrid skills in the modern era. Manpower is shrinking in terms of headcount as many corporates would like to have their staff good at multitasking and deliver when it matters most.
There is no denying the fact that this is going to be the future of the placement industry as well.
